That’s exactly what happens when you substitute traditional pancake mix with creamy Greek yogurt.

To whip up a batch of scrumptious, high-protein pancakes that will leave you feeling satisfied, simply follow these straightforward steps:

Combine all the necessary components in a blending device, processing them until they reach a uniform consistency.

Cook a non-stick skillet over medium heat; pour in approximately one-quarter cup of batter for each pancake, and continue cooking until bubbles begin to form on the surface. Continue cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the food is fully cooked. As you continue to cook, ensure that all remaining batter is fully utilized in subsequent batches. Serve with toppings of choice!

Brittany’s Tips!

As bananas ripen, their natural sweetness and flavor intensity increase, resulting in a more scrumptious pancake experience when used as an ingredient?
Utilize a well-seasoned non-stick skillet or griddle for seamless cooking, ensuring that your food glides effortlessly and minimizes the need for excessive flipping.
Cook the pancakes over a medium heat setting. If the heat is too intense, the exterior may char before the interior is fully cooked.

Storing Options

Stored leftover pancakes in an airtight container within the refrigerator can remain fresh for a duration of approximately four days. Re-heat the leftovers gently, either by toasting them briefly in a toaster or warming them slowly over low heat on a skillet.

Want pancakes on demand? Freeze them! Arrange the items flatly on a baking sheet, and allow them to freeze until they reach a solid state; subsequently, transfer them into a freezer-safe bag or container for long-term storage. These products will remain fresh and usable for approximately three months. Reheat straight from frozen to enjoy a swift and effortless breakfast at any time – simply pop into your toaster, microwave, or skillet.
